Against the Megamachine: Essays on Empire & Its Enemies

Description

Cultural Studies. David Watson’s wide-ranging essays ponder such themes as the state, empire and war, humanity’s tragic relation to the natural world, and the contemporary mass society generated by industrial capitalism and modern technology. His impassioned critique offers a vision of social transformation open to diverse possibilities, and suggests where a new politics must begin: as a radical challenge to the mystique of progress, in defense of nature, memory and spirit.
